Scoliosis

Scoliosis is not a disease, but rather a term used to describe an abnormal side to side curvature of the spine that shows up as an “S” or “C” shape.

Early Detection and Management is KEY

Patients especially young kids who haven’t reached skeletal maturity (those who are still growing) are more likely to have progression of curves. Therefore, it is vital to pick up on postural changes as quickly as possible.

Signs of possible scoliosis:

Uneven height of shoulders

One shoulder blade more prominent than the other

Leg length difference

Uneven pelvic height

Abnormal curve shape of the spine during standing

A non-surgical option for the management of scoliosis includes a combination of chiropractic care and active rehabilitation. Goals of care include preventing the progression of the curve, improving strength and range of motion which allow them to continue with their physical activities, sports and daily routines.

"I did the spinal decompression here [and the] numbness was remarkably reduced in the first few sessions. After completing my recommended sessions, I was able to return to my running and also performing in a dance festival!"
